In looking over some clippings of
years gone by, the Advance found the
following interesting factsconcerning
the early History of Howick township.
No name is appended, hence we do not
know who the writer was, but he was
evidently conversant with the early
history of the township.
.Hawick is the most northeasterly
of the ,sixteen townships comprising
the Caunty of Huron. It contains by
superficial measurement 67,51,0 acres.
The late John Carter of Fordwich,
who settled on lot 11, con. 8, in August,
1851, was the first settler of this pros-
perous township, comprising several
thriving villages and scenes of rural
prosperity, happiness and plenty. Mr.
Carter came in via the present village
of Molesworth, stopping at the house
of Andrew Mitchell, on the Wallace
and Grey town -line, He was obliged
to brush Is road into his location, a
distance of about ten miles, For a
long time Mitchell's was the nearest
human habitation. Renry Zimmer-
man became proprietor of this farm.
The second settler, Jacob Cook,
father of B. S. Cook, settled on lot 15,
con. 3. He did not move his fancily
till February, 1854. As there was no
passable road beyond Mitchell's at
Molesworth, Mr. Cook and his family
were obliged to portage all their effects
from Molesworth on their backs. He
died at Fordwich universally regretted,
in 1876. Mr. Carter, the original sett-
ler, was also a respected citizen of
Fordwich and lived to a ripe old age.
\Zr. Fred, Gedeke purchased the farm
'11r. Cook settled on.
The spring and summer of 1854 was
marked by the arrival of numerous
additions to the inhabitants. Among
these were Henry Smith, who settled
on for 6, con. 4; John Donley, lot 4,
tori 5 ; Allen Ireland, lot 38, con, B ;
the Greer brothers on the lots now
covered by the village of Gorrie ; and
early in 1854, the Sotherns, Joel Rogers,
W. G. Walker, and Arthur Mitchell
at or near Fordwich ; and Geo. Dane
and the Strong brothers near Borrie ;
and Wm. Spence near Newbridge, he
being the first.. settler in that portion
of the township: About the same
time as these latter or probably a little
before, Hugh Hollingshead settled on
lot 3, con. 3, and built a sawmill there
soon after—the first in the township.
The first frame house in the town-
ship is said to have been erected by
Joel Rogers at Fordwich ; Arthur
Mitchell opened the first store in
Fordwich and had a postoffice estab-
lished here in 1855, of which he was
the first postmaster, There was a
weekly mail and Mr. Mitchell was
obliged to go to Wallace Village, a
- distance of 18 miles, to meet the regu-
lar mail carrier, often wading through
swamps and beaver meadows.

HAMILTONIi,:L�'�"' ��IGUAM.
The first religious services ever held
in the township were conducted by a
Wesleyan Methodist minister, named
Clark, in the house of old Mrs. Greer.
The first quarterly meeting was pre-
sided over by Rev. Armstrong in the
house of Henry Smith. "The first Sun-
day School was organized by James
Leech in the Leech Bros.' shanty,
where Gorrie now stands. James
Leech was Ieader of the first Methodist
"class" for many years and for a long
time this class consisted of only him-
self and Mr. and Mrs, Besanson. Mr,
Besanson will be remembered as the
postmaster in Gorrie many years ago.
In 1856 Howick was organized as a
separate municipality, being united to
the township of Grey the year pre-
vious, Henry Smith became the first
Reeve and Messrs. Mitchell, Gough,
Bolton and Hollingshead the first
Councillors. John Dane was appointed
Clerk and Treasurer ; John Wood,
Assessor, and Wm. Wade, Collector.
The Council met alternately at hotels
in Fordwich and Gorrie. Nearly 30
years ago a substantial Township Hall
was erected in Gorrie, but the Council
still continues to hold their meetings
alternately in Gorrie and Fordwich.
Within the limits of the township
we have two thriving villages, Gerrie
and Fordwich, the latter being laid
out' as the "Town Plot of Howick" and
the former as "Howick Village," and
Newbridge, Lakelet and Belmore, three
small villages.
Altogether Howick may fairly be
called a very prosperous township,
and occupies a well -merited place in
the front rank of Huron County muni-
cipalities. Its farm buildings and pri-
vate improvements throughout com-
pare favorably with those of any other
township. This township is well sup-
plied with schools, and the intelligence
of its people furnishes ample proof
that they have been put to good use.
Orchard Notes.
Mulching trees does not prevent
winter killing. Any one who has
once thinned fruit never goes back
to the old practice. Thinning pays
well, If we prime our trees that bear
heavily, we would get crops every
year. Thie pruning should be done
in winter. :Heavy fertilizers applied
in rue spring, following a big crop,
do not induce a large crop that year:
If we have a large erop one year and
wish to fertilize for a big crop the
next year also, we should apply fer-
tilizers. in the spring of the first
year as it is then that the fruit buds
are formedfor the next year. Or
chardlsts who have practicedthoroogh-
ly cultivation have found that they
do not have as touch loss from the
falling of immature fruit during the
(ley seasons as those who have not
cultivated or have only cultivated aw
few tittles,' If the season is dry the
oreherds ehouid be cultivated quite
frequently and later than 1isuai, So
that enough moititure will be ooze,
served to mstdtre the fruit crop.

SORES FROM ELBOWS TO
FINGERS.
Zain.Buk Worked a Miracle of Healing.
Reverened Gentleman Fully Corroborates.
Miss Kate L, Dolliver, of Caledonia,
Queens Co., N.S,, says : "I must add
my testimony to the value of tam-Buk.
Ulcers and sores broke out on my arm,
and although I tried to heal them by
using various preparations, nothing
seemed to do me any good. The sores
spread until from fingers to elbow was
one mass of ulceration.
"I had live different doctors, and
faithfully carried out their instruc-
tions. I drank pint after pint of blood
medicines, tried salve after salve, and
lotion after lotion ; but it was of no
avail.
"My father then took me thirty
miles to see a well-known doctor. Re
photographed the arm and hand. This
photograph was sent to a New York
hospital to, the specialist ; but they
sent word tey could do nothing furth-
er for me, and I was in despair.
"One day a friend asked me if I. had
tried. Za.m-Buk, I said I had not, but
I got a box right away. That first box
did me more good than all the medi-
cine 1 had tried up to that time, so I
continued the treatment. Every box
healed the sores more and more until,
to make a long story short, Zaam4Buk
healed all the sores completely. Every-
body in this place knows of my case
and that it is Za,m-Buk alone which
cured me,"
MINISTER CORROBORATES —Rev. W.
B. M. Parker, of Caledonia, Miss Dolli-
ver's minister, writes : "This is to
certify that the testimonial of Miss
Dolliver is correct as far as nay know-
ledge goes. I have known her for a
year and a half, and her cure effected
by Zana-Buk is remarkable."
Wherever there is ulceration, blood-
poison, sores, cold -cracks, abscesses,
cuts, burns, bruises, or any skint in-
jury or disease, there Zam-Buk should
be applied. It is also a sure Cure for
piles. All druggists and stores sell at
50c per box, or post free from Zain-
Buk Co,, Toronto, for price. Refuse

stitutes, '
Ripley Man Found Dead.

and used as a dwelling. Neighbors

they were surprised to see him sitting

the scene almost itzxtidediately, but the
Vital spark had fled, Dr. McOrinnuon,

BEEF CATTLE SCARCITY,
mole Oa:melee ram/
Some figures supplied by Prof. Ar.
kell to the cattle breeders last week
give, cause for reflection, and we might
also say alariti, regarding the meat
supply of this country.. Be stated
that there was eight per cent. fewer
cattle marketed in Toronto in 1011
than in 1010, and three per cent. fewer
in Montreal, while for the whole of
Canada the decrease was seventeen per
cent. If one stops to consider that
during 1911 several hundred thousand
more people were added to Canada's
population, the real significance of the
decrease in market cattle looms up in
greater force. It is a situation that
every farmer and every cattle raiser
should ponder over, It takes a couple
of years to bring a beef animal to
maturity or better to a point where it
can be classed as marketable beef, so
that there can be nogreat increase in
the meat supply for a few years at
least. In the meantime the people in
our towns and cities have to be fed,
and the thousands who will come to
Canada in the next few years will
have to be fed also. The situation
certainly points to a bright future for
the beef cattle man for a few years at
least, and the farmer who is in a posi-
tion to take advantage of the situation
may well pat himself on the back.
There are good things in store for him
if he gets into the game early, and
begins by producing the right kind of
market animal. And there is a need
for a better market animal, if we are
to judge from the types that are
offered for beef at the leading .market
centres. Of course a short feed supply
will account to some extent, for the
inferior quality of the offerings during
the pant few months. But it will not
account for all of it. There are hun-
dreds of cattle sent tothe block every
day that should never have been put
on the market as beef animals, though
this may be an effective way of pre-
venting an increaseof their kind.
They are not of the beef type, and lose
money for the breeder and the man
who feeds them, There are beef cattle
produced in this country that Would
top the market anywhere, and we
want more of thein.
CUT IT OUT.
What's the use, young man, of saying
"Life is but a game of chance,"
Just because you've always failed to
win a prize ?
Just because you've met reverses in
your struggles to advance,
Don't imagine Fate decreed you'd
never rise.
Say, forget it I Be a sticker ! Dig right
in and try again,
In the end you're sure to triumph,
there's no doubt ;
Tho' the path is steep and rugged, do
not grumble and complain,
Just keep climbing to your goal and
cut it out.
What s the use, young man, of saying
you're the victim of ill -luck,
When you know you only have
yourself to blame?
When you know that Perseverance,
tireless Energy and Pluck
Will enable you to win Success and
Fame?
Then get busy, keep on striving diffi-
culties to surmount,
Never falter till you put each foe to
rout;
'Tis a waste of time to worry—you
must make each moment count
If you'd reach the shining goal—so
cut it out.
Do not offer vain excuses for your
failure and downfall ;
Of the world don't take a pessimistic
view ;
Don't grow weary, but remember
there's en equal chance for all.
And if you'd achieve success, "it's
up to you."
Simply smile at your misfortunes ; do
the very best you can,
Tho' the waves of trouble buffet you
about;
You will never reap the harvest till
you've proved yourself a man,
So just ponder o'er this poem (?) and
cut it out,
Farmers' Laundries,
Kansas, a state which has done more
to make rural life comfortable than
almost any other division of the globe,
has added another new idea to its
many. A Kansas agriculture college
has organized a scheme whereby
wash -day, that great discomfort of
country life, is to be abolished, by the
establishment of farmers' laundries.
One of these is being established in
each radius of five or six miles. The
farmers pay an assessment according
to the number of their family, and the
size of their farm. The machinery is
purchased, set up and placed in charge
of an expert. It is usually placed
near the local cheese factory, so that
the daily trip with the farmer's milk
will serve also for the bringing and
taking of the farm laundry. The
maintenance cost is divided up be-
tween the patrons in much the same
manner as the profits of a cheese
factory is divided, The actual cost of
running the establishment monthly is
figured out and a farmer assessed for
this according to the work done for
him. There ie a roinimum month-
ly charge for each patron, The
idea has caught like wildfire, and
already dozens end scores of co-opera-
tive rural laundries have been estab-
lished. The work, it is found, can be
done tit an extrertnely low rate.

A OR,EAT DISCOVERY,
certain Ingredients That Really
Promote Bair Growth When
Properly Combined.
Resorcin is one of the most effective
germ destroyers ever discovered by
aoience, and in connection, with Beta
Napthol, which is both germicidal and
antiseptic, a eomhination is formed,
which destroys the germs which rob
the hair of ite natural nourishmept,
and also creates a clean, healthy oon-
dition of the scalp, which prevents the
the development of new germs.
Pilocarpin, although not a coloring
chatter or dye, is a well-known, ingre-
dient for restoring the hair to its
natural color, when the loss of hair
has been caused by a disease of the
scalp.
These ingredients in proper combin-
ation, with alcohol added as a stimu-
lant and for its well-defined nourish-
ing' properties, perfect perhaps the
most' effective remedy that is known
for scalp and hair troubles.
We have a remedy which is chiefly
composed of these ingredients, in com-
bination with other extremely invalu-
able medicinal agents. We guarantee
it to positively cure dandruff and to
grow hair, even though the scalp in
spots is bare of hair. ,If there is any
vitality left in the roots, it will posi-
tively cure baldness, or we will refund
your money. If the scalp has a
glazed, shiny appearance, it's an in-
dication that baldness is permanent,
but in other instances we believe bald-
ness is curable.
We want everyone troubled with
sealp disease or loss of hair to try
Rexall "93" Hair Tonic. If it does
not cure dandruff and grow hair to
the satisfaction of the user, we will
without question or quibble return
every cent paid us for it. We print
this guarantee on every bottle. It
has effected a positive cure in. 93%
of cases where put to a practical
test.
Rexall.. "93" Hair Tonic is entirely
unlike, and we think, in every parti-
cular, better than anything else we
know of for the purpose for which it
is prescribed. We urge you to try
this preparation at our `entire risk.
Certainly we'know of no better guar-
antee to give you. Remember, you
can obtain Rexall Remedies in Wing -
ham only at our store --The Rexall
Store. J. W. McKibbon.
Fine Fish Caught. -
During the summer of 1911 Field
and Stream, a popular sportsman's
magazine, introduced a prize fishing
contest scheme to their readers offer-
ing valuable prizes for the biggest fish
caught in any part of America. Three
of the leading prizes were won by fish
taken from Canadian summer resorts
reached by the Grand Trunk Railway
System. The first grand prize was
given for a lake trout weighing 28 lbs.,
caught in Lake Temagami, Ontario.
The first grand prize for a black spot-
ted salmon trout was awarded to an
angler. who caught his fish in Algon-
quin National Park, the ash weighing
12 pounds. The ladies grand prize
was awarded to a fair angler for a
sjnall mouth black bass, weighing 6
ciounds, 4 oz , caught in the Georgian
Bay.
AFTER GRIP
Look Out for Trouble
The after-effects of the Grip areapt
to be serious, but a normal healthy
condition may be restored in a sur-
prisingly short time by Vino'.
Watertown, Wis."After a severe
attack of the Grip my system was in
a very weakened, nervous and run-
down condition. I began' taking Vinol
with the very best results, and In a
short time 1 began to feel like an en-
tirely different person, and I am better
and stronger than I have been for
years." Adelaide Gamm. (We guaran-
tee this testimonial to be genuine.)
We have never sold in our store
such a valuable strength creator and
health restorer for the convalescent,
the weak and run-down, as Vinol, and
we ask people in this vicinity to try
a bottle of Vinol, with the under-
standing that their money will be re-
turned if It does not do all we claim
for it.

"The Liver Pills act
So Naturally and
Easily."
Such a statement, corning from
the cashier of a bank, shows what
confidence responsible people have
in these pills, Mr, A. L. Wilson
after trying them wrote:
"I have used Dr. Milea' Nerve
and Liver Pills and also your
Anti -Pain Pills, on. myself, with
good results. The Liver Pills
act so naturally and so easily
that 1 scarcely know that 1
have taken a pill. Frequently
being troubled with headache I
take an Anti -Pani P111 and get
immediate relief in every ease."
A. L. Milson, Sparta, Ill.
Mr. Wilson was for a number
of years cashier of the First
Wational Bank of Sparta.
Dr. Miles'
Nerve and Liver Pills
are different from others. Many
kinds of liver pills are "impossible"
after one trial on account of their
harshncsa. JSr.. Milts' Nerve and
Liver Pills do not act by sheer force
but in an easy, natural way, with.
out griping of undue axritatieri.
They are not habit forming.
